Sorry, I don't have any macOS devices, so can't really help. Perhaps someone will more Mac know-how here will be able to assist.

[repi]

sounds like a missing native library locally on your machine, it probably installed with Xcode? do you have Xcode installed?

Thanks for the tip, mysterious knowledgeable person!

The same problem.

XCode Version 14.1 (14B47b)
OS: macOS Ventura 13.0.1

stable-aarch64-apple-darwin unchanged - rustc 1.67.1 (d5a82bbd2 2023-02-07)

Randomly stumbled upon this issue: this happens because intel_tex_2 doesn't contain the prebuilt ISPC kernel for aarch64-apple-darwin just yet. We'll include that in the next release after getting through Traverse-Research/intel-tex-rs-2#14 and a related change for Android.

[MarijnS95]

This should now be fixed with the freshly published intel_tex_2 0.2.1: https://github.com/Traverse-Research/intel-tex-rs-2/releases/tag/0.2.1 🥳

Oh, nice, thanks @MarijnS95 :D
